Customizing workflows for electronic patient-reported outcome (ePRO) symptom monitoring using the action, actor, context, target, time (AACTT) framework
We demonstrated the value in using the AACTT to guide the co-design of a site-specific workflow for ePRO symptom monitoring. By describing this process in detail, we will enable others to replicate this process for creating site-specific workflows not only for ePRO symptom monitoring, but for any complex clinical process
Cultural diversity in early hearing detection and intervention
This study investigated service providers’ perspectives on the barriers experienced by families from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds along the Early Hearing Detection and Intervention (EHDI) pathway in Victoria, Australia. Twelve service providers (i.e., hearing screening program staff and diagnostic audiologists) participated in semi-structured interviews. Data were analyzed using inductive content analysis. Service providers i…
Advancing the Speed and Science of Implementation Using Mixed-Methods Process Mapping - Best Practice Recommendations
Mixed-methods process mapping is a visualisation tool that identifies the steps, resources and personnel required to deliver a clinical practice, and has been previously used in an ad hoc manner to develop effective implementation strategies and solutions. To realise the potential of mixed-methods process mapping as an implementation tool, we aimed to develop and formalize the methodological steps and provide guidance for contemporary best practi…
Team Around the Patient
Background: Demands on healthcare are outstripping the resources available. Many organisations are struggling to recruit sufficient registered nursing staff to maintain service delivery and are re-evaluating how safe, high quality, sustainable care could be provided. The concept “Team Around the Patient” being piloted in Hywel Dda University Health Board seeks to understand who can provide what care outside of traditional workforce models. The ob…
Extending an Antiracism Lens to the Implementation of Precision Public Health Interventions
Precision public health holds promise to improve disease prevention and health promotion strategies, allowing the right intervention to be delivered to the right population at the right time. Growing concerns underscore the potential for precision-based approaches to exacerbate health disparities by relying on biased data inputs and recapitulating existing access inequities. To achieve its full potential, precision public health must focus on add…
Living with a genetic, undiagnosed or rare disease
INTRODUCTION: COVID-19 changed the way we lived with uncertainty from the outset as the pandemic impacted every aspect of our lives from well-being, socializing to accessing healthcare. For people in vulnerable populations, such as those with genetic, undiagnosed and rare disorders, the experience was heightened. AIM: The aim of this study was to identify how the rapidly changing COVID-19 environment impacted the lives of the Genetic, Undiagnosed…
What Does a Systems Approach to Quality Improvement Look Like in Practice
Universally improving healthcare systems is difficult to achieve in practice with organisations implementing a range of quality improvement (QI) approaches, in varying and changing contexts, and efforts ranging from project-based improvements to whole system change. This study aimed to identify how organisations overcome the challenges to improving the quality of the services they deliver. Drawing on the eight challenges from the 'Quality and Saf…
What Have We Learnt About the Sourcing of Personal Protective Equipment During Pandemics? Leadership and Management in Healthcare Supply Chain Management
Introduction: During the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic there have been much publicised shortages in Personal Protective Equipment for frontline health care workers, from masks to gowns. Recent previous airborne pandemics provide an opportunity to learn how to effectively lead and manage supply chains during crisis situations. Identifying and plotting this learning against time will reveal what has been learnt, when and, significantly, what can be lea…

Towards a Program Theory for Family-Focused Practice in Adult Mental Health Care Settings
Objectives: In several high-income countries, family-focused practice programs have been introduced in adult mental health care settings to identify and support children whose parents live with mental health problems. Whilst their common goal is to reduce the impact of parental mental illness on children, the mechanisms by which they improve outcomes in different systems and settings are less well known. This kind of knowledge can importantly con…
